Following our participation in the Steam Next Fest, we've received tremendous support and love from many players! The game still has many shortcomings, and we've gotten a lot of player feedback – thank you all so much for your love and support!
In today's update, we:
Added simple herb information tips. When you mouse over an herb, you can see its name and description in a side panel. When you click to select an herb, the effect description panel will be shown.
Fixed display issues on some resolutions.
Adjusted Kitty's HP.
Q&A
We've compiled some of the most common questions/issues raised during the demo for answers. If you like us, please join our Discord to chat with us!
"Need more information about herbs! Don't want to guess blindly!"
The notebook system has always been part of our development plan. For the Next Fest version, we hastily implemented a basic effect notes system. Today's urgent update added herb description tips. In the full release, we will refine the notebook system further: As the story progresses, you will gain a more comprehensive understanding of herbs, and your notes will update in real-time. The notes for effects will also more clearly distinguish between single-herb effects and the extra effects from herb combinations.
"Stuck! Can't beat the Kitty/Vine Flower!"
These two battles are essentially the first real encounters for players, and the guidance definitely needs improvement. We are working on ways to explain the combat mechanics more clearly. Also, remember you can mouse over characters to see action hints – this might help with your dosing decisions!
About the Tutorial:
We are still revising the tutorial section. In the full release, the rules for dosing will be explained more explicitly. We hope to use more engaging ways to let everyone experience the charm of potion combinations step-by-step!
"The story parts feel boring~"
We are continuously adjusting the pacing between story and combat. In the full release, we will strive to integrate the story more tightly with herbs and combat, while also shortening the length of individual dialogue segments.
English Localization:
We noticed some overseas players also tried our demo and provided feedback. We are truly sorry for the subpar experience! We very much hope to gain support and feedback from international players. Before the official launch, we will seek a professional localization team. If you are willing to help us, please join our Discord to communicate with us.
"When is the release date?"
The game will be released in 2025.
Once again, thank you to all players for your support! We hope we can work together to make Sure You Wanna Drink This? even better!
